Chapter 400

Seeing Meng Xu's expression, Meng Yan knew that he could not ask anything. He said with a smile, "it seems that this question is a bit difficult for his royal highness. In this case, his royal highness should not be entangled. This is what the king said casually."

In fact, he really said it casually. Anyway, sooner or later, other people will know about it. Now it's nothing to tell Meng Xu.

Meng Xu suddenly raised his eyelids. It seems that he didn't expect that Meng Yan would say so.

I don't know if it's his illusion. He always feels that since Meng Yan came back from the border this time, it's not the same as before. But if you ask him to say one more one two three, he really can't say it.

But it was this inexplicable feeling that made Meng Xu believe Meng Yan's words.

Maybe Meng Yan really mentioned this to him?

Being teased by Meng Yan, Meng Xu was not so nervous. Instead, he began to seriously think about what Meng Yan said.

Although he didn't know why Meng Yan told him about it, the emperor let Meng Yan take charge of it, but his mind was clear at a glance.

Meng Xu's heart suddenly has a little bad taste. Next, Meng Yan doesn't talk to him, and he doesn't take the initiative to find a topic.

There are more and more ministers at the dinner party. After all, Meng Yan is the leading role today. So from time to time, some ministers come to say hello and socialize with each other. Although Meng Yan is not familiar and enthusiastic, he also says a few words to each other. When these people see Meng Xu sitting next to them, they also say hello to Meng Xu.

Discerning people can see that the atmosphere between Meng Yan and Meng Xu is not right. They ask a good question and then retreat. In private, they guess whether something has happened between the uncle and nephew.

When all the people came, the emperor appeared.

He sat on the throne and said a word to the eunuch next to him. Then the eunuch told all the dancers on the stage to step down.

After they left, the emperor slowly picked up his glass, looked at the crowd and said, "we are once again victorious. Thanks to the Regent's good command of troops, today I am here to hold a celebration banquet for the Regent. I hope that the Regent can be stable and peaceful."

"Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the Lord." The ministers at the bottom also raised their glasses in return to the emperor.

After all, the emperor is the emperor, only others give him a toast, so he is a good start, drink a glass of wine, behind did not touch the glass.

On the contrary, Meng Yan drank a lot of wine, and his position was not high enough. Some ministers of higher rank always wanted to give some face.

At this time, Meng Xu had already returned to his position. Seeing that Meng Yan was toasted cup by cup, he didn't feel that he was left out in the cold. On the contrary, he felt that Meng Yan was a little miserable.

In fact, how many of these toasts really hope Meng Yan to be good.

So, how many people covet the throne?

Meng Xu thinks that he hasn't been in that position, and he doesn't have Meng Yan's strength, but he just takes the name of a prince. Who knows what will happen next?

"Uncle Huang, you've drunk enough wine today, and my nephew won't force you. This is my nephew's toast. Please feel free." Meng Xu turns to give Meng Yan a toast, and then drinks it without waiting for Meng Yan to move.

Meng Yan said with a smile: "since it is the prince's Royal Highness who respects the king, the king should drink it naturally."

After that, Meng Yan drank up the wine.

Naturally, his drinking capacity is not so bad. After drinking so much, he is only slightly drunk. His mind is still clear.

The group of dancers who just went down also came back on the stage, performing one after another.

In fact, according to Meng Yan, there's nothing to look at. If you have such spare time, it's better to watch soldiers practice. It's more interesting than that.

Moreover, if he attends the dinner party here, he can't go back early to accompany the Qin and Chu people.

He didn't tell his nephew that he wanted to marry Qin and Chu people, and he didn't know what kind of reaction Meng Xu would have when he knew the truth.

Thinking of this, Meng Yan also turned to see Meng Xu for a second, but it was just a second. Soon, Meng Yan began to focus on the teacup in front of him.

After drinking so much wine just now, he would never drink again when he was alone. Otherwise, the people of Qin and Chu would be worried when he went back later.

However, it is just the Kung Fu of this eye that Meng Xu discovered.

Meng Xu's heart was a little flustered. He didn't know if it was his illusion. He always felt that Meng Yan had just glanced at him with a little sympathy.

Is he going to suffer any more crimes recently?

It's impossible for Meng Yan to go out and learn fortune telling this time

Just this one look will make up so much of Meng Xu's mind. In the next time, he will be restless and scared.

He felt that Meng Yan was really strange now.

Meng Yan, who didn't know that Meng Xu had been shot innocently, still missed the Qin and Chu people in his heart.

Occasionally, he would look up at the dancers and say that they were really not good dancers, even half of the Qin and Chu people.

OK, now he can't go back immediately

If Meng Xu knew what Meng Yan was thinking now, he would be able to spit out blood.

The emperor has paid close attention to Meng Yan several times, and he has also seen his lack of interest, but what about that?

To put it bluntly, this kind of banquet is for people to see, so that others can know how much the emperor attaches importance to Meng Yan and what he can do for Meng Yan. That's all. It doesn't need to be affirmed by Meng Yan himself.

Meng Yan spent almost all his time at the boring dinner. He didn't eat a few mouthfuls of exquisite cakes, fresh fruits and special dishes on the table. When the emperor announced that the banquet was over, his mind was invigorated.

Finally, I can go back to see the Qin and Chu people.

After such a long delay in the palace, the people of Qin and Chu must be worried.

Although Meng Yan also ordered people to send news to the palace, asking the people of Qin and Chu to have dinner first. He wanted to attend a dinner at the palace, indicating that the people of Qin and Chu should not worry too much, he still understood the people's mind. Even if he explained that he was OK, the people of Qin and Chu could not help worrying.

I don't know how much spirit the emperor has today. He has been at the banquet for such a long time. Thinking about it, Meng Yan feels worried.

"I just felt that uncle Huang was a little worried. Now I'm in such a hurry to leave. Is there something wrong with the palace?" Meng continued to see Meng Yan's action some surprised, did not resist to ask out.
